Cleaning What is the best way to clean wood houses and tunnels?

[Annmarie]

I just adopted 2 new girls and I need to clean my current herds scent off of the wood houses and wood tunnels. Is there a good way to do this or do I need to just buy all new houses? I only have 1 plastic pigloo and 7 wood houses. I would hate to just throw them away. Any advice?

You can scrub them with dish detergent and vinegar, rinse with water, and let them dry in the sun or bake in the oven at 180 for an hour.

Great, thank you. since it is only 50 degrees here I will try and bake in the oven.

You're welcome. I forgot to mention, don't leave them unattended. We don't want wood houses burning in your oven.

I was just about to ask this question, so imagine my surprise when I logged onto the forum and found my question had just been answered! I'm so glad I don't have to throw away Spice's wooden house when the new piggy comes.
